Here's what I've found on a few test installations in regard to the hanging install. On a clean install...

  • The manual install works just fine for "Data Source=SQLExpress2", but the wizard install on the same connection string fails.
  • On another machine, where I can use "Data Source=SQLExpress", the wizard installs fine.

On an upgrade, the wizard works fine as well.


When the wizard fails, it not only reports the error in the browser and hangs, but it also fails to write to the logs in the SQLDataProvider folder. I'm not sure what's up with that...

This morning, I've got a little bit of time to run a debug session on my box with SQLExpress2, so if I find anything, I'll report what I've got.

Installing a new DNN instance on Windows XP SP2 with a file-based SQL 2005 Express w/ SP2 configuration. The wizard continued to fail with this endless "...installing database...".

Confirming the database connection strings and changing the web.config to resolved the issue for me. The non-wizard install succeeded.

My environment: WinSrv 2003 with SQL server 2005 enterprise edition.

I think the problem is that the database scripts which are executed during installation requires that the whole sql server collation setting is set to an case in-sensitive variant. It's not just enough with setting the database to be case in-sensitive.

Why? During the installation it seems like the scripts are using the database tempdb, if the server collation setting is case sensitive the scripts will fail even though the database collation is case in-sensitive.

Could this be the ansewer to the problem? The solution I don't know... I cant change the server collation setting due to other databases... How can this be solved? Do I have to manually change all the database scripts?

Hi to correct this problem try doing the following: before installing edit the file Providers\DataProviders\SqlDataProvider\InstallRoles.sql

add 'COLLATE database_default'

in the two occurrences of  'DECLARE @tbNames table(Name nvarchar(256) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY)'

changing to 'DECLARE @tbNames table(Name nvarchar(256) COLLATE database_default NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY)'

After this just install manually.

Hope this can help you.

Best regards

Just realized I wrote this. I meant: After this just install normally

Best regards
